Morris Nomad - Market

Market

The Nomad failed to replicate the success of the Morris 1100. The gearbox problems experienced with the Morris 1500, which was very difficult to engage into reverse because of the location of the gearstick couplings under the dashboard and the "pull-up" action, were not fixed.

The Nomad used ribbon cables for the secondary electrical circuit. These proved so disastrous, the board of Leyland decided to adopt them across the entire BMC range in the UK.

The Morris 1300/1500/Nomad models were replaced in the Australian market in 1972 by the Morris Marina.
